At that time any internal 650percent escape present is then handled. </p> 651 652<p>To change a property of an image already in memory, you need to use <a 653href="../www/command-line-options.html#set" >-set</a>. 654</p> 655 656<p>Note that properties, like attributes (and profiles), are saved with 657images when write, if the image file format allows. </p> 658 659 660<h3>Artifacts and Options</h3> 661 662<p>The previous percent escapes are associated with the primary Attributes and 663Properties. Which is the original and primary focus of such percent escapes. 664</p> 665 666<p>However there are many operational settings that are used by various 667ImageMagick operators that can be useful to set and later access. These 668consist of per-image Artifacts, and Global options (associated with a list of 669images, typically the current image list).</p> 670 671<p>Note that the major difference between an artifact and a property is that 672artifacts, being an internal operational setting, is not saved with images (if 673such is possible). </p> 674 675<p>For example when you use <code>-define 'distort:viewport=100x100'</code> you 676are in fact generating a global option, which the <a href="../www/command-line-options.html#distort" 677>-distort</a> operator will use to modify its behavior (distorted output 678image 'view'). </p> 679 680<p>An Option is essentially an Artifact that has been stored globally as part 681of a list of images (specifically a 'Wand' of images). As such they are 682identical, in that a Option, is simply a global Artifact for all the 683associated images. </p> 684 685<p>As such you can use <code>-set 'option:distort:viewport' '100x100'</code> to 686achieve the same result of setting a Artifact for the disort operation to use. 687</p> 688 689<p><b>Internal Handling of a Global Option...</b></p> 690 691<p>The Core library ('MagickCore') does not generally directly understand 692Global Options. As such, continuing the previous example, the 693<code>DistortImages()</code> function only looks up an artifact to discover if 694a 'viewport' has been provided to it. </p> 695 696<p>How Global Options are used when a library function requests an Artifact is 697one of the key differences between IMv6 and IMv7.</p> 698 699<p>Sets a link back to the global options 700data, so that if a specific per-image Artifact is not found , then it will 701look for a equivalent global Option for that image list. directly. This 702saves coping these free-form options into artifacts repeatedly, and means you 703can now separately define a global option for a list, and a individual 704overriding artifact for a specific image in that list. </p> 705 706<p>Note that many API's that do not use Wands (PerlMagick for example using 707arrays of images rather than a Wand). In these API's you will not have Global 708Options, only per-image Artifacts. </p> 709 710<p>In summery a Global Option, if available, is equivalent to a per-image 711Artifact. </p> 712 713 714<h3>Glob-Pattern Listing of Properties, Artifacts and Options</h3> 715 716<p>The <var>setting</var> can contain a glob pattern. As such you can 717now list all free-form string properties, artifacts, and options, (but not 718specific image attributes) using...</p> 719 720<pre class="highlight"><code>magick ... \ 721 -print "__Properties__\n%[*]" \ 722 -print "__Artifacts__\n%[artifact:*]" \ 723 -print "__Options__\n%[option:*]" \ 724 ... 725</code></pre> 726 727<p> The format of glob patterns are very specific and as such is generally 728only used to list specific settings, such as when debugging, rather than being 729used for image processing use. </p> 730 731 732<h3>Calculated Percent Escape Prefixes</h3> 733 734<p>There are some special prefixes (before the first ':') which performs 735calculations based on the user provided string that follows that prefix. For 736example you can do a numerical calculation use <code>%[fx:...]</code> to 737evaluate the given <a href="fx.html">FX</a> expressions:</p> 738 739<pre class="highlight"><code>%[fx:<var>expression</var>] 740</code></pre> 741 742<p>Use <code>pixel:</code> or <code>hex:</code> to evaluate a pixel color as defined by the <a 743href="fx.html">FX</a> 744expression:</p> 745 746<pre class="highlight"><code>%[pixel:<var>expression</var>] 747</code></pre> 748 749<p>Use <a href="../www/command-line-options.html#define">-define</a> to specify the color compliance (e.g. <code>-define pixel:compliance=css</code>)</p>. 750 751<h3>Specific Profile Percent Escape Prefixes</h3> 752 753<p>You can also use the following special formatting syntax to print EXIF 754mage meta-data that was included in the image read in:</p> 755 756<pre class="highlight"><code>%[EXIF:<var>tag</var>] 757</code></pre> 758 759<p>Choose <var>tag</var> from the following:</p> 760 761<pre class="pre-scrollable highlight"><code> 762* (print all EXIF tags, in keyword=data format) 763!
